Toaru Ossan no VRMMO Katsudouki

Dance of the Fairies, the Opening Act PT 2

Leaving Zwei and his guild members’ Fairies with eyes full of love, I excuse myself from the Guild Field.
Today I’m switching gears to crafting items for the food stall.

I couldn’t say it in front of Nora, but in reality the Bear meat stew had come out as Simmered Bear Meat Stew with Quality 8.

To run away from that, this time I dared to lie.


Simmered Bear Meat Stew

The bear meat has had its gamey quality drawn out, and was afterwards simmered carefully as a stew.
The Bear meat’s deliciousness has spread to the vegetables; the vegetables have a distinct Bear meat flavor.

Quality 8

It takes a long time to prepare, so since it’s difficult to mass produce I’m selling them for 500Glow a piece. For a one-time consumable this is an unprecedented price.

Because this is a game, as long as the seal isn’t broken it won’t deteriorate.
It’s a cheat of a property that would never exist in “Real”, but I can take advantage of it here.

While in the middle of cooking, Fairies kept dropping in.

I guess when these ones contract with a player they’ll take on a more defined form ….
It hasn’t been long since the Fairies showed up; there’s a lot I still don’t know.

To be on the safe side, I asked the people who came to buy food whether they could see them too.
The result is,

“Ah, yeah, I see them. They’re kind of just dropping ne~,” was one comment, and

“Fairies that haven’t contracted with players? I haven’t seen one,” was another reply.
I got that it’s roughly divided into these 3 categories.

I wonder if there’s some sort of condition to see them.

Is it simply for roleplay?

But this is a VRMMO; I can’t imagine that they would change the base settings that much.

For the necessary specs to make this kind of world, the old games from the past, just barely possible with weak specs, mercilessly pursued better algorithms1 to be able to reach this world.

Like that, I can’t imagine them implementing a change to the settings.

Eventually, the reason behind it probably won’t come up on the Info Site.

You’ll stop enjoying the game if you keep trying to pull in how the mechanics work, and that’s kind of sad.

Anyway, the players the Fairies get easily attached to aren’t just me.

In the game, standing out is worrisome and comes with lots of burdens.

Well, most of those types tend to go around with a fixed party so you don’t hear much about them getting hounded with invites.

Now my cooking is just about over; the leftovers will go into a vending machine, and after that I’ll head out to the Field to raise [Whip] and [Thief].
While I’m fighting Wolves I can replenish my meat supply … I’m about out of stock.

Heading into the field, I’m seeing a lot of players fighting together with their Fairies.

From what I can see it goes like this; along with Tackle, Fairies with claws or beaks will use them in close-ranged attacks.

In addition, it looks like Water Fairies will cast every once in a while and Fire Fairies will also raise a touch attack occasionally.

Like this there’s definitely a big difference between having a Fairy and not having one.

I wonder what the people who’ve failed like me are going to do.

It’d be good if this doesn’t cause parties to break up …
It’s probably ok not to worry about other parties’ problems.

While thinking about that in a corner of my mind, I strike at a Wolf with my whip.

If I raise [Whip] a little more I might learn something that would make catching something easier, and I’ll probably have to buy another whip too.

Since I have a style that covers both extremes, close and far-ranged combat, with [Bow] and [Kick], I chose [Whip] to cover the leftovers.

With the battle over, I take a break in the shade of a tree.

Even though I was just out on the Field being suicidal, as expected of wooded areas and forests.
Quickly eating a Horned Rabbit Steak Sandwich that I’d brought and quenching my thirst with a potion juice … Without thinking too much about the expenses and making the things you’d want to bring to eat yourself is nice.

While I’m doing that, the Fairies were all dropping in again.

It’s very soothing.

Suddenly I realized that there were a lot of Fairies coming close and showing interest in my pocket, so I take out the Broken Fairy Contract Crystal event item.
This is the only think I could think of that they could be interested in.

Like so many floating bubbles the Fairies surrounded the crystal I took out.

Are they playing?

There might be people who will enjoy it if it’s uploaded onto an official site.

I’d like to continue this pleasantly peaceful time … but it’s getting closer to the time when I must log out so, even though I think the Fairies flying around and through the crystal won’t understand it, I say, “Hey, we’re closing soon.”2

I say a “See ya” and then hurry down the road to the town.

Maybe because I was having so much fun spending my time so peacefully …

Slowly but surely, a change had occurred.

The broken Fairy Contract Crystal … that crystal is no longer transparent.

The First Half continues still.
The Second Half is still a little longer to go.

check koumoku – ? ??? “check items”. It’s something to do with computer functions, and I’m betting it’s the formulas for determining things like stats, but if there’s a better translation let me know. sorosoro oshimaidayo – since there’s a bit of a playful tone, I translated it to be a little more light-hearted than the English “You need to stop soon”. Just letting you know I did alter it.

< T/N: Goodness, that computer spec bit was all … it took the longest time, and I’m still not confident about it because of all the terms I wasn’t too sure about being computer slang or not. And then he goes, “Well, it’s not really important… so fairies.” …

On the other hand, this chapter had a little bit of stuff that wasn’t in the manga.
